We present our measurements of radial velocities of two stars suspected to have a substellar companion by using observations made with a cassegrain échelle spectrograph. The stability issues and details of the data reduction are discussed in Ilyin & Duemmler (paper I, these proceedings). The results obtained here show that relatively high accuracy of radial velocity determinations is also attainable for cassegrain spectrographs.
